I'm sorry to interrupt you. I'm just going to ask the question because it didn't translate well.

On page 7, in 8.29, it says, “Indigenous Services Canada did not use information about the risks faced by First Nations and the capacity of First Nations to respond to emergencies.”

Can you explain why the department didn't use information about the first nations' existing capacity?
